Two of the NFL giants went toe-to-toe on Tuesday over Roger Goodell’s contract. Thirty-one of the 32 owners reportedly gave the green light for the compensation committee to open a conversation with Goodell for a new contract. The lone dissenter? Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones.
According to an ESPN report, Jones and New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft engaged in a “heated exchange” during an owners meeting in New York. Jones, who purchased the Cowboys in 1989 – five years before Kraft joined the owners' circle – is one of the most well-known names in the NFL.
